-    PyFunc Operator.
-
-    User can use :code:`py_func` to register operators in Python side.
-    The inputs of :code:`func` is :code:`LoDTensor` and outputs can be
-    numpy array or :code:`LoDTensor`. Paddle would call the registered
-    :code:`func` in forward part, and call :code:`backward_func` in
-    backward part (if :code:`backward_func` is not None).
+    This API is used to register customized OP to Fluid. The forward  function 
+    of the registered OP is ``func`` and the backward function of that is 
+    ``backward_func``. Paddle will call ``func`` at forward runtime  and call 
+    ``backward_func`` at backward runtime(if ``backward_func`` is not  None). 
+    ``x`` is the input of ``func``, whose type must be LoDTensor; ``out`` is 
+    the output of ``func``, whose type can be either LoDTensor or NumPy array.
 
-    User should set the right data type and shape of :code:`out` before
-    calling this function. However, data types and shapes of gradients of
-    :code:`out` and :code:`x` would be inferred automatically.
+    The input of the backward function ``backward_func`` is ``x``, ``out`` and 
+    the gradient of ``out``. If some variables of ``out`` have no gradient, the 
+    relevant input variable of ``backward_func`` is None. If some variables of 
+    ``x`` do not have a gradient, the user should return None in ``backward_func``.
 
-    Input orders of :code:`backward_func` would be: forward inputs
-    :code:`x`, forward outputs :code:`out` and backward input gradients of
-    :code:`out`. If some variables of :code:`out` have no gradient, the input
-    tensor would be None in Python side. If some variables of :code:`in` have
-    no gradient, users should return None.
+    The data type and shape of ``out`` should also be set correctly before this 
+    API is called, and the data type and shape of the gradient of ``out`` and 
+    ``x`` will be inferred automatically.
 
-    This function can also be used to debug the running network. User can
-    add a :code:`py_func` operator without output, and print input
-    :code:`x` inside :code:`func`.
+    This API can also be used to debug the neural network by setting the ``func``
+    as a function that only print variables.
 
     Args:
-        func (callable): forward Python function.
-        x (Variable|list(Variable)|tuple(Variable)): inputs of :code:`func`.
-        out (Variable|list(Variable)|tuple(Variable)): outputs of :code:`func`.
-            Paddle cannot infer shapes and data types of :code:`out`. Users
-            should create :code:`out` beforehand.
-        backward_func (callable|None): backward Python function.
-                                       None means no backward. Default None.
-        skip_vars_in_backward_input (Variable|list(Variable)|tuple(Variable)):
-            Variables that are not needed in :code:`backward_func` inputs.
-            These variables must be any of :code:`x` and :code:`out`.
-            If set, these vars would not be inputs of :code:`backward_func`,
-            Only useful when :code:`backward_func` is not None. Default None.
+        func (callable): The forward function of the registered OP. When the network
+            is running, the forward output ``out`` will be calculated according to this 
+            function and the forward input ``x``.
+        x (Variable): The input of the forward function ``func``, its type can be 
+            Variable | tuple[Variable] | list[Variale], in which Variable is LoDTensor.
+        out (Variable): The output of the forward function ``func``, its type can be
+            Variable | tuple[Variable] | list[Variale], in which Variable can be either 
+            LoDTensor or NumPy array. Since Paddle cannot automatically infer the shape
+            and data type of ``out``, ``out`` must be created in advance.
+        backward_func (callable, optional): The backward function of the registered OP. 
+            Its default value is None, which means there is no reverse calculation. If 
+            it is not None, ``backward_func`` is called to calculate the gradient of 
+            ``x`` when the network is at backward runtime.
+        skip_vars_in_backward_input (Variable, optional): It's used to limit the input 
+            variable list of ``backward_func``, and it can be single Variable, tuple[Variable]
+            or list[Variable]. It must belong to either ``x`` or ``out``. The default 
+            value is None, which means that no variables need to be removed from ``x`` 
+            and ``out``. If it is not None, these variables will not be the input of 
+            ``backward_func``. This parameter is only useful when ``backward_func`` is 
+            not None.
     
     Returns: 
-        out (Variable|list(Variable)|tuple(Variable)): input :code:`out`
